I'd say you get a javascript error in your onclick handler, this does
not look like a server error at all. You should probably add quotes
around the {% get_my_url %} stuff; or does this template tag add the
quotes itself?
After reading the snippet for a second time, I've got to say it looks
quite messed up. This won't work. Try something like that:
<input type="submit" onclick="$.post('{% get_my_url %}',
$('#id_comment').val(), function(data) { alert(data);}); return
false;" />
(Parentheses in $.post removed, # added in $('#id_comment'), added
quotes around {% get_my_url %} )
